Kiana, do you understand what filial piety is?

"After all, cooperation requires sincerity." Yu Zhe spread his hands and smiled harmlessly. "We can complete the first step first, and then transfer the core after you confirm my sincerity."

Yu Zhe believed that his gift was enough to impress the Ruler of the Sky. After all, this fake Conquest Gem had cost him a lot of effort.

In addition to analyzing the power of the Conquest Gem, he also gave the gem the ability to absorb Honkai energy from the imaginary space, because one of the differences between the pseudo-core and the real Herrscher core is whether it can absorb Honkai energy from the imaginary space.

After carefully studying Yaesakura's body, Yu Zhe successfully created this fake Conquest Gem.

The Herrscher of the Void paced around Yu Zhe thoughtfully. "Interesting..." She suddenly stopped, turned around and looked directly into Yu Zhe's eyes. "But how do I know this isn't another one of your traps?"

"But we can always try, right?" Yu Zhe also looked into the eyes of the Herrscher of the Sky.

The Herrscher of the Void stared at Yu Zhe for a long time, then suddenly chuckled, "Human, you are much bolder than I thought." She slowly raised her hand, her fingertips lightly brushing across the surface of the fake Conquest Gem. "Okay, I'll play along with you. But remember..."

Her voice suddenly became dangerous. "If I find out what you're up to..."

"Then I'd be courting death." Yu Zhe continued, his smile unchanged. "I understand this principle."

184 The real battle has just begun

"Remember, keep your distance when you encounter Siegfried's attack." Yu Zhe crossed his arms and warned seriously, "The power of the Holy Judge of Heavenly Fire is no joke."

The Herrscher of the Void curled his lips, a hint of displeasure flashing in his golden pupils: "Humph, who do you think I am? A mere human..."

"A human who almost sent you to hell twice." Yu Zhe interrupted her without hesitation, the corners of his mouth unable to help but rise slightly, "Do you need me to help you recall the details? The first time in Siberia..."

The Herrscher of the Void's expression froze. She subconsciously touched her abdomen, where she felt the phantom pain of the burning Holy Judgment of Heavenly Fire.

"You're so long-winded!" She turned away, her voice noticeably lowered, "I know my limits."

Yu Zhe nodded in satisfaction and continued, "Also, don't mention the name Cecilia in front of her. Unless you want to see Siegfried in his rampage state—believe me, that would definitely be more exciting than facing the Siegfried of the past."

Now Siegfried's body has been strengthened by the feminization Gu. Although he cannot withstand the power of the catastrophe, he has no problem using the ordinary Skyfire Holy Judgement Greatsword mode and unsheathing the Skyfire.

The reason why she didn't use Skyfire when she just realized that the Herrscher of the Sky had awakened was entirely because she was concerned about Kiana and the other people present. Otherwise, if Siegfried had used Skyfire, Yang would probably be the only one who could survive besides her.

"I know, I know!" The Herrscher of the Void waved his hand impatiently, but his eyes turned serious. "That guy is really troublesome when he goes crazy."

As for why Siegfried became Siegfried, the Herrscher of the Sky doesn't care about such things.

Seeing the other party's rare submissive look, Yu Zhe couldn't help but chuckle.

But it's normal to think about it. When she was Sirin, she was almost killed by Siegfried's Judgment of Heavenly Fire because of carelessness. When she woke up in Kiana's body, she was almost killed again facing Siegfried whose body was shaking. It's very good that these two times did not leave a psychological shadow on the Herrscher of the Sky.

Otherwise it would be like the Honkai version of the Demon King meeting the Sun Swordsman.

When Yu Zhe turned around and prepared to leave, he stopped as if remembering something: "By the way, if the situation changes..."

"I'll let you know right away." The Herrscher of the Sky rolled his eyes. "Let's go now. If you keep talking, Siegfried will have cleared out all the Honkai Beasts outside."

Yu Zhe shrugged and his figure gradually disappeared into the portal.

The Herrscher of the Void looked in the direction he left and muttered softly, "What a worrier."

After leaving Chiyou, Yu Zhe stood on a high vantage point and looked down at the battlefield. He noticed that on the coastline not far away, the Valkyries of Destiny were fighting in coordination with the Titan mechas of Anti-Entropy, their artillery fire intertwined into a dense fire network.

"Heh, what a rare sight." He chuckled and shook his head, his fingers unconsciously rubbing the edge of his mask. "What would Yang think if he saw this?"

Putting the mask back on, Yu Zhe closed his eyes and sensed the energy fluctuations on the battlefield.

Soon, he locked onto the familiar presence of Siegfried in the encirclement of a group of Honkai beasts.

Then Yu Zhe quickly came to Siegfried's side.

"Who?" Sensing an approaching presence, Siegfried instinctively swung his sword, the sharp blade light slicing through the air. However, the sword seemed to strike a shadow, passing directly through Yu Zhe's body.

"What is this?!!!" Siegfried's pupils suddenly shrank, a flash of shock in her azure eyes. She quickly stepped back, her hands tightly gripping the sword, and stared warily at the mysterious man in the strange mask.

"Why don't you recognize me?" Yu Zhe, who had just transformed himself to avoid Siegfried's attack, had a playful tone in his voice. He deliberately tilted his mask slightly, revealing half of his familiar smile.

Hearing the familiar tone, Siegfried guessed the identity of the mysterious masked man in front of him, "Yu Zhe?"

Siegfried's brow relaxed.

"That's how you recognized me?" Yu Zhe covered his chest exaggeratedly and made a hurt expression. "If I were an ordinary person, you would be charged with murdering your husband right now." He deliberately dragged out the last word, his tone full of ridicule.

"What nonsense!" Siegfried's cheeks instantly flushed, spreading from her ears to her neck like a sunset glow. She stamped her feet in anger, "Who knew you would become like this, and even wear a mask?"

Siegfried has no good feelings towards the masked man.

"I'm sorry~" he said softly, "I promise I will give you a heads up next time and won't scare our brave Miss Siegfried again."

"Who, who was scared!" Siegfried retorted hastily, but in her eagerness she bit her tongue. She wrinkled her nose in annoyance, which made Yu Zhe laugh.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore." Yu Zhe finally regained his serious expression and put on his mask. "Now, shouldn't we go and deal with that troublesome Chi You? If we delay any longer, I'm afraid the entire coastal area will suffer."

"Hmm." Siegfried took a deep breath and nodded, "Then let's deal with this Honkai Beast first."

Before Siegfried finished speaking, more Honkai beasts came rushing in from all directions, their shells rubbing against each other, making a teeth-grinding sound. "It seems Chiyou has discovered us. These are his scouts."

Siegfried leaned against Yu Zhe and could clearly feel the rhythm of his breathing: "We have to fight our way out."

"The number is more than expected." Yu Zhe sighed lightly, but a dangerous arc appeared at the corner of his mouth under the mask. "But it's just right for warming up."

Before he finished speaking, Yu Zhe's figure rushed out like a ghost.

Siegfried only had time to see a flash of light before his eyes before the three Honkai beasts in the front row were neatly cut in half.

"So fast..." Siegfried bit his lower lip, then swung his greatsword and charged into the enemy formation. The greatsword drew a dazzling arc of light, severing the two charging Honkai beasts in half.

"Left!" Yu Zhe's voice suddenly rang out. Siegfried reflexively turned sideways, a flash of blade brushing past her hair, severing a Honkai beast beside her.

"Thanks!" she shouted, and at the same time kicked another Honkai beast away with a roundhouse kick.

The two men stood back to back, and the corpses of the surrounding Honkai beasts soon piled up into a small hill. The two men also came in front of Chi You.

Siegfried looked at the huge black shadow in front of him and took a deep breath. "The real battle has just begun..."

Yu Zhe nodded, his expression becoming serious beneath the mask: "Let's go, we will fight side by side."

"Ah."

185 We are safe...temporarily...

Yu Zhe and Siegfried watched as Chi You was about to step forward when suddenly a purple crack appeared in the sky.

"Be careful!" Yu Zhe suddenly grabbed her arm and they both took several steps back.

I saw an elegant figure slowly walking out of the void, with long snow-white hair fluttering in the wind and a contemptuous smile in his golden eyes.

"Hersher of the Void?!" Siegfried exclaimed and immediately assumed a fighting stance.

"It's really lively~" The Herrscher of the Sky chuckled, gently playing with her hair with her slender fingers. "But little bugs are like that. They have strong vitality, like to struggle, and are very annoying."

Yu Zhe's eyes instantly became sharp. He lowered his voice and said to Siegfried, "Change of plan. Get rid of her first."

"I understand." Siegfried gritted his teeth, and a fierce flame began to burn on the body of the Holy Judge of Heavenly Fire.

The Herrscher of the Void tilted her head and gave an innocent smile: "What? Don't you welcome me?" Before she finished her words, her figure suddenly disappeared from the spot.

"Up!" Yu Zhe shouted, and the Yama Blade instantly unsheathed. The sharp sound of metal clashing echoed throughout the battlefield as the Herrscher of the Void's Sub-Aerial Spear and the Yama Blade collided, sending out dazzling sparks.

Siegfried seized the opportunity, and with a whistling sound, he swept his greatsword across. The Herrscher of the Void used a space jump to avoid the fatal blow, but the sword still cut a hole in the hem of her skirt.

"How rude~" A hint of anger flashed in the eyes of the Herrscher of the Sky.

She raised her hand and waved, and countless space cracks opened up around the two of them. In an instant, hundreds of sub-sky spears shot out from the cracks and poured down like a rainstorm.

Each spear was wrapped in the energy of tearing through space, drawing a trajectory in the air.

"Dang! Dang! Dang!" Yu Zhe's Yama Sword danced into a blue light curtain, accurately blocking the incoming Sub-Sky Spear.

Amidst the flying sparks, his knuckles were numb from the shock, but he didn't dare to relax at all.

Siegfried took a more direct defensive approach.

She roared, and flames that could burn everything burst out from the Holy Judgment of Heavenly Fire. The scorching flames melted all the spears of the sky.

"What a disgusting flame," the Herrscher of the Sky floated in mid-air, his long hair moving without wind.

"But how much longer can you hold out?" She snapped her fingers gracefully, and more spatial cracks opened above the two men. "A mere human, do you dare to use this level of fire to oppose the power of a god?"

Siegfried gritted her teeth, the Holy Judgment of Heavenly Fire burned fiercely in her hands, and the scorching flames distorted the surrounding air.

"Stop spouting nonsense!" she roared, beads of sweat oozing from her forehead. "Even if you're a god, I'll pull you down from the altar today!"

Yu Zhe took the opportunity to move quickly, and the Yama Sword in his hand glowed with a faint blue light.

He lowered his voice and said to Siegfried, "Cover me, I'll find a chance to get close."

Siegfried nodded imperceptibly, swung the giant sword in his hand violently, and a wall of fire rose from the ground, temporarily blocking the Herrscher of the Sky's sight.

"It's now!"

Yu Zhe's body suddenly accelerated, and with the cover of the fire wall, he shuttled through the rain of spears. The Yama Sword in his hand turned into a blue lightning, accurately splitting the oncoming Sub-Sky Spear.

Seeing this, Siegfried spun the Holy Judge of Skyfire in her hands, forming a vortex of fire. "Don't try to hurt him!" She roared, attracting most of the Spears of the Sky to her side.

The blazing flames collided violently with the force of space, producing a deafening explosion.

The Herrscher of the Void narrowed her eyes slightly, looking at Yu Zhe's rapidly approaching figure. "Interesting~" she said softly, raising her finger again.

"You think that'll—" Before she could finish her words, Yu Zhe had already broken through to within ten meters of her. A faint blue light suddenly surged from the Yama Blade's blade like a burning flame, illuminating the surrounding space in an eerie blue.

"This knife is for all the people you hurt!" Yu Zhe's voice was filled with rage. The muscles in his right arm were tensed and the blade drew a perfect arc.

The Herrscher of the Sky finally revealed a look of panic: "!!!"

She hurriedly tried to open the spatial barrier, but it was too late. The power of the Yama Blade directly tore through the spatial defense, and the blade penetrated her body without any hindrance.

"No... Impossible..." The Herrscher of the Sky looked down at the blade piercing his chest in disbelief, his golden pupils shrinking violently.

"This is... your retribution..." Yu Zhe gritted his teeth, twisting his wrist violently. The Yama Blade spun within her body, and the Herrscher of the Void arched her body in agony, her face, always radiating pride, now twisted beyond recognition.

"A mere...human...how dare..." She raised her hand with difficulty, trying to grab Yu Zhe's collar, but it dropped weakly halfway.

The Houkai energy in her body was rapidly dissipating, and the power to control everything was moving away from her!

"It's over," Yu Zhe said coldly, suddenly drawing his Yama Blade. The Herrscher of the Void stumbled back a few steps, clutching her chest and falling to her knees. Her long hair was disheveled, no longer as elegant as before.

"I... I am... a god..." She struggled to stand up, but could only lie powerlessly on the ground. Her golden eyes stared at Yu Zhe, filled with resentment and resentment.

Yu Zhe looked down at her, "No, you are just a pathetic person..."

"What do you know!" The Herrscher of the Void suddenly screamed hysterically, "I have the power to change the world! I can make those ant-like mortals understand..."

Her voice stopped abruptly...

The golden light in her eyes dimmed like a dying candle. Her arms fell limply, and she collapsed to the ground like a puppet with its strings cut.

Only the slight rise and fall of her chest proved that she was still alive, but she had fallen into a deep coma.

The Herrscher of the Sky has fallen asleep... temporarily...

As the Herrscher of the Sky fell asleep, the atmosphere of the entire battlefield suddenly changed.

The originally violent Honkai beasts were like an army that had lost its command. The pressure on the Valkyries was immediately relieved, and the battle situation began to tilt one-sidedly in favor of the humans.

In the distance, Chi You roared in pain, his huge body shaking.

Due to the excessive extraction of Honkai energy by the Herrscher of the Void, its originally indestructible shell was covered with cracks, and dark purple energy continued to overflow from the wounds.

"Now!" Yu Lan Dale shouted, her long golden hair fluttering in the wind, and the black abyss and white flower in her hand shining with dazzling light.

She leaped up lightly, like a golden lightning bolt piercing Chi You's vitals.

Chi You tried to resist, but his movements were as slow as a drunk.

Yulan Dell's attack accurately hit its core. With a deafening explosion, this once dreaded Judgment-level Honkai beast fell to the ground and turned into countless Honkai energy fragments that dissipated in the air.

186 Love Can Kill Gods

"It seems that this cooperation has come to an end." Ying sighed softly, and her slender fingers stroked the blade, slowly putting the cold-glowing sword into the sheath. The scabbard collided with the blade, making a crisp sound.

She turned and looked at Fu Hua, with a hint of expectation in her eyes: "I wonder if fighting side by side just now reminded you of something."

Fu Hua was slightly startled, then shook her head gently, with a hint of apology in her voice, "Sorry, I still can't remember it..."

"No need to apologize." Ying smiled and shook her head. "This isn't your fault. Well, that's enough chatting for today. It's time for us to leave."

The corners of her mouth rose slightly and she showed Fu Hua a gentle smile.

Yae Sakura, standing nearby, remained silent, gazing at the two with eyes that mirrored Sakura's. Her fingers unconsciously stroked the hilt of her sword, as if she were lost in thought.
